lintian whining about app-defaults file

[phil@bolthole.com]

It seems lintian has just newly started complaining if you dont explicitly
put your app-defaults file in "conffiles".

However, according to the manual, you're supposed to put the FULL PATH to
a file, in "conffiles".

The thing is, the location depends on where Imake decides to put it this
month.
So making maintainers put in a full path to the app-defaults file, is
contrary to good maintanance practice. It duplicates the decision of
"where does this file belong"?

The whole point of using Imake, is to have all that kind of stuff
automated, from a central config file.

So I'd like to propose one of the following:

a) lintian just quit whining about app-default files
b) Imake do something magican to make lintian happy
c) Something else [debhelper?] that allows folks to keep using the nice,
   clean Imake syntax of
       InstallAppDefaults(AppFile)
   and not have to worry about absolute paths at all.
